In TCM, different teas have different temperatures, actions, and effects on the body. Some cool excess Heat 🔥, some warm Yang ☀️, and others help digestion, circulation, or mental clarity.
Here are some of my favorites 👇
🍃 Green Tea
Cooling and refreshing.
Great for clearing Heat, supporting digestion, and soothing Liver Qi.
Perfect for people who run hot, feel irritable, or tend toward inflammation.
🔥 Black Tea
More warming in nature.
Supports Yang, warms the Stomach, and can feel grounding and comforting, especially in colder weather or for people with cold digestion.
🍂 Oolong Tea
One of the best teas for moving stagnant Qi and resolving Dampness.
Traditionally used to support digestion after heavy or greasy meals.
🌱 Pu-erh Tea
Aged and earthy.
Excellent in TCM for strengthening the Spleen, transforming Dampness, and helping with that heavy, foggy feeling after overeating.
💚 Matcha
More concentrated than regular green tea.
Clears Heat while also helping focus and concentration.
Amazing for mental clarity without the crash of coffee.
🌾 Genmaicha
A gentle Japanese tea made with green tea and roasted rice.
Very grounding and easier on the Stomach than regular green tea.
Lovely for Spleen Qi deficiency and weak digestion.
🍋 Ginger & Lemon Tea
One of my FAVORITES.
Warms the middle burner, dispels cold, improves circulation, and supports digestion.
Wonderful during cold weather, early colds, cramps, or sluggish digestion.
✨ One thing I love about TCM is that we don’t just ask:
“Is this healthy?”
We ask:
👉 Is it warming or cooling?
👉 Does this person have excess or deficiency?
👉 Is digestion weak or strong?
👉 Is there Dampness, Heat, or Cold?
Because even healthy foods and teas may not be right for everyone at every time.
Your body constitution matters 💜
